What the petition asks
I want to enable that international students are are able to work more 20 hours a week during term time due to the cost of living crisis causing financial difficulties.
Many international students are struggling to cope particularly in areas such as housing. Rising rent prices, coupled with the limited income opportunities, it makes it increasingly challenging for them to secure safe and affordable accommodation. Many international students could be forced to make difficult choices, often compromising on housing quality or safety, which could impact their overall well-being and academic performance. Paying for other services such as medical help could also impact this.
